Found this lad tonight looks like he had a slow death, the crows had pecked his eyes out. Saved me £1 for a .222 round anyway.

Pic removed as it seems to haved caused a fence to some viewers

Poor thing. The same thing happened on a shoot I attended once. A fox came out of the side of a wood and in attempting to jump a sheep netting fence it got stuck in a similar way. The worst shot on the shoot was sent to kill it and he missed with his first shot.

I don't think this is anything we should be proud of, pleased with or displaying pictures of on an open forum.

 

Yes foxes need to be controlled, but in a humane and quick manner. This poor creature died a slow and horrible death and to see this as a positive thing is extremely disrespectful of what is a magnificent animal.

I'm not sure if this fox has got stuck on wire. I know a lot of people around our area hang foxes on fences after they have shot them. Foxes will generally have a run underneath a fence rather than jumping a fence, they would generally only jump a fence as a last resort.
